[Coco] GCC6809 cross compiler, assembler & linker

[Walter Zambotti]

Ha ha!

It's David Flamand's version that I had trouble making on my Ubuntu 16.04lts system.

David's version has a tool to convert the assembler to OS9 module format.

Does you version also have this or can I use that tool from David's build?

Ok I feel I need to do lot of catching up.  Where do I start.

Is there a Hello world example (OS9) for using these tools?

Is there a list of what has already been ported to OS9 using the gcc6809 tools?

I'd like to port some tools like 

Dillo (Web browser c/c++)
FLTK (GUI toolkit)
FLUID (UID for FLTK)

But I don't want to reinvent the wheel if this has already been done.

Walter

Brian once made a nice manual for the 6809 target, but lost everything in a hard disk crash. I have only found parts of it in the internet archive.

Also, David Flamand has ported Brian's 4.3 version to use his own assembler/linker and done quite a lot of work on the code. See
